Pros

At Cascades CIP, it is nice to be able to see all the mills and learn a lot of new stuff. It's a nice team and doors are always opened.

Cons

Sometimes, having to travel a lot can be hard on the family. You do not travel all the time, but it can reach half a year of being away from home.

Pros

Good salary, decent sales support. Managers generally willing to work with you to help attain success. Cardboard recycling is very competitive, but they have a few forward thinking programs that might be considered an edge over the competition.

Cons

Sales cycle in recycling contracts is usually 2 year minimum commitment in the industry. When you find a company willing to consider signing with you, management not willing to keep a sales person on long enough to have the remainder of the companies previous commitment end so you can close the deal. Too much reporting and paperwork which takes away considerably from time which should be spent on prospecting and closing deals
